I didn't ask Artsie & Fanny this time - they are busy preparing another fic recc. I'm just thankful for the fanfic gods who made me read these two connected fics, due to a Button Guru Bartering.

The uh-mazing, young writer, Yellowglue, tells the same stunning story twice, from different POV's. Intense, emotional, hot, right on the nail - in a style that has no rival. She doesn't need to cover her characters with tatts or piercings to show they're dark, deep and dirty. Read it, feel it and meet Lumberjackward and Greyachella, or else you seriously miss out!

Here are the banners I made for her. Click on them to be taken to the written wonderment. Quick scoring below.

Enough. That she didn't make it to the full score is meant as a compliment here. There are nice twists. And more angst. Hey Steph, need a lesson in intense writing? Check this out!

TWI-LECHERY

How hot is the plot?

Uhm... it works fine. Be prepared for some angst-ridden, fuckhawt lovemaking here. Again: pretty intense. Is it weird, that I got turned on by Edward getting drunk (yes drunk as in, really canned!) by just sniffing at sleeping Bella?? I guess so...

TWI-LOVELINESS

How about romance?

Sure... but if you want fluffy, stay away. These two aren't cute, they are fucking in love!!

Today I tweeted my historical 10.000th tweet. Gah!! Unbelievable! Anyway... I made it a Button Guru Giveaway: The first to retweet my 10.000th tweet won a free customized Button Guru artwork of choice. And the winner is.... Zoomage a.k.a. ZoomShinyVolvo. She will get a banner for her fanfic Apocolyptic.

Update #3: A Bartering

But Zoomie has to step in line, because first there's another barter job to do. If you haven't read the companion fics The Worst of Wheater (BPOV) and Rose like Thunder (EPOV) byYellowGlue yet, hells.... go read them!! They're awesome! And they'll both get banners. Once the bartering is complete, I'll show you the pretty pretty thing I got in exchange. :)

-----------------------------------------------------------------

Want to barter with the Button Guru too?

Here are the RULES:

1. If you have something I might want, we can bargain.The only condition not negotiable is: It has to be something money can't buy. Which means, you won't get a button or banner for a Twilight merch, for instance. People have tried to barter with things that are only available in the US, but the Button Guru is a bitch when it comes to bartering.

2.Usually it would be something someone does, or a selfmade thing. If I don't know anything about you, I can not suggest anything myself. It depends on what you can do or have or... dunno. So if you want to barter, you would either have to come up with suggestions yourself, or tell me something about your talents, hobbies etc., so that I can challenge you.

3. The Button Guru never asks for a mission impossible! He just loves to challenge peoples' inspiriation. If someone isn't much of an artist but can maybe knit or bake - he might be happy with a pair of wrist-warmers or yummy coookies.

That's pretty much it. I love bartering, I love creative ideas and being surprised with things...
